BREATHTAKING PERFORMANCE
by MonicaChicago on 2/1/12The Chicago Theatre - ChicagoRating: 5 out of 5On Saturday, January 28th, I was ever so obliged to see DAVID GARRETT at the Chicago Theatre with my Mom! The show was spectacular, everything I thought it’d be and so much more. The show began with David being announced onstage but the lights were dimmed and I kept thinking, “Where the hell is he?!” I could clearly see the band but I could not make out which one he was- not to mention the fact that we had very good seats. Thirty seconds into the first song a beautiful, blonde, German man strolls down the aisle, a foot away from where I’m sitting- so close to me I could smell his cologne. Sure enough, it was David Garrett coming down the aisle and starting the show off with an intimate audience connection.
He really is a musical genius, one who has woven contemporary music with classical taste. His music takes my breath away and I could say that it was my favorite concert to date. Which is saying a lot because I’ve seen KISS, BOB DYLAN, NINE INCH NAILS, among other well recognized bands, LIVE- BUT I HAD NEVER FELT, SCENE, or HEARD ANYTHING QUITE AS BEAUTIFUL AS THIS.
